Just after the New Year our darling second little grandson turned one!! How time flies…….he is the most gorgeous little man who lets me kiss him non-stop and never tries to ‘get away’ from Nanny!! My daughter organised a birthday party for him and I had gathered together everything for an ice cream bar at Christmas which we didn’t get to use so it was the perfect time to bring it out. It was a lovely warm day with all the kids and their dads splashing around in the pool for hours so an ice cream bar was just perfect!!
Just look at these gorgeous summer colours!! I had found these at a local supermarket for 99c each. As you can see I stocked up ready for a big Christmas crowd.
I was going to have hot pink accents which we had to change slightly for a dear little boy’s first birthday party.
Rows and rows of yummy colours.
After the party I realised this photo was the closest thing I got to a shot of the overall table. I sometimes get a bit carried away and forget that I’m supposed to be taking photos for my blog!
I had printed and laminated labels for the ice cream toppings.
Such a selection of extras for the top!!
I’m sure the kids couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw all of this – actually most of their parents couldn’t either!
My favourites!
The selection was amazing.
These cones were just so yummy…they seemed to have a slight chocolatey flavour to them. Delicious!! The pink tray in the background was filled with ice and three different flavoured tubs of ice cream were placed in there for everyone to serve themselves. I forgot to take photos of that when we had it all organised.
How wonderful is this cake??? My daughter made it herself and decorated it in colours just like Boppy’s (Mr FH) tractor on the farm. I thought it was just wonderful.
How cool are these face biscuits?? My daughters have become such wonderful capable mums of which I am very proud.
More yummy cakes. We had such a wonderful day! I had seen a post by The Tablescaper who had set a table similar to this for her children so I can’t claim the idea as mine!!

What a fun party table.....we don't have little ones anymore, but I'm thinking that table would be great for just adults, too! Fun!
Oh Suzi, it all looks so pretty and cheery and delicious! Yum!
But where is your tea cup for Tea Cup Tuesday? Did I miss it?
Hugs to you dear,

I come to you from Martha's Favorites. I saw your post and I just had to see what was going on on the farm. I LOVE your ideas and looks like you had a great time at your grandson's birthday party. Everything is so colorful and I know everyone must have had a wonderful time. Blog is truly delightful and I enjoyed my visit.
I hope you will come to see me at Down Memory La La Lane.

Really love the great Birthday Party! The colored ice creamcones are so cute and I am certain everyone had a wonderful time deciding on their favorite toppings. You pics with the names are cute, too. The tractor cake is so professional and great for a boy and his grandad. Happy Birthday Party! Pam

So colorful and delicious!
Any child (or adult) would love to be at this party - so colorful and inviting!...MMmmm, enjoy!
What a happy, fun table! Love the tractor cake. I am sure the party was a success.
I think you just became the favorite Grandmother of all time in your grandson's eyes! There is probably nothing that could top this for a little kid! All the bright colors, sweet treats, that incredibly cool cake (kudos to your daughter on that!)...all of the elements that created a perfect party! I really like the ice cream cups. Very wise of you to purchase a lot of them. I'm sure you will get lots of good use over the years! Your daughters are both quite talented in the kitchen. They did a magnificent job! Great job on the markers you made for the sweets!
I mentioned you on my blog this week. Lucky you in sunny, warm weather!!! Have a good weekend!
oooh this is so fun!! I love all the colors. Great pics!!

Sorry about the two comments. Didn't know the first one went through so I did the second one on my IPad. Shannon
Hi Suzy, This is the cutest thing I have seen for children. What a neat way to serve the little ones. They all love ice cream and I would loved to have seen their little faces.
I can see Moms everywhere doing this.
Thanks for sharing,
Ginger
